How to make home made swags / sleeping / bed rolls

I hate sleeping bags.

They end up in knots around my legs.

And image wise - latte sipping city kids use sleeping bags, real men use swags. And I don't want my kids growing up like that so I made them some swags.

Here's how.

First, I bought a second hand industrial sewing machine from ebay - $160. It took me a bit of fiddling to get it sorted but now it goes like a diesel on gas.

Second, I got hold of an old canvas tent. It was a mate's. Someone had given it to him because it had no poles, so he gave it to me.

Third, I cut of the canvas tent and ran up four bed rolls.

Easy really.

And now my kids won't grow up to be latte sipping nancy city boys.
